The last flight window for Masten Space Systems came in the morning after
all night repairs of fire damage to the Xoie rocket.
Xoie flew both legs picture-perfect.
With the attempt judged as qualifiying for Level 2 of the Lunar Lander
Challenge, the tie-breaking factor is the landing accuracy.
The average accuracy of 19 cm made this a come-from-behind winning effort.
MSS has thanked and will undoubtedly continue to thank the community for
its support, especially the volunteers who stayed at the shop all night
to assist with repairs (and give the safety-critical members of the crew
a chance to get required sleep.)
